Hunter Dickinson put on a show Monday night for Kansas Basketball, and Bill Self didn’t hesitate to give him his flowers after the game. “I thought he was the best player in the game, obviously,” Self said. “We got killed on the glass, and if it wasn’t for Hunter, it would’ve been worse.”

Instant reaction to Kansas basketball’s important road win vs. Colorado (and Hunter Dickinson’s sensational performance).

Kansas C Hunter Dickinson had one of the better games of his collegiate career in a win at Colorado on Monday. Bill Self applauded Dickinson in one of his best outings as a Jayhawk following the 71-64 win.

Kansas led 26-20 with eight minutes left in the first half, but the offense cooled off, allowing Colorado to hang around. Dickinson was the one keeping things steady, dominating inside and helping the Jayhawks rebuild a double-digit lead with just over five minutes to play.

Colorado took its only lead when Hammond scored in the paint to make it 39-38 with 15:39 remaining. Dickinson answered with a jumper and a three-point play and Kansas never trailed again. The Buffaloes managed to even the score twice and trailed 62-60 after Hammond nailed a 3-pointer with 4:12 left. They would get no closer.

According to On3, Dickinson ranks at No. 17 in college basketball and No. 74 in college sports in terms of NIL valuation. Before signing a deal with Crush Soda, Dickinson had also inked NIL contracts with Keurig and Mass St. Collective.

Kansas men’s basketball escaped Boulder, Colorado, with a road win over the Buffaloes on Monday night. Dickinson led the way with 32 points in a 71-64 victory over Colorado.

On a day when Kansas could count on very little on the offensive end, it could at least rely on its old standby, center Hunter Dickinson. Dickinson scored a season-high 32 points on 13-for-18 shooting and grabbed 13 rebounds,
